    Fishing for Avatar

    The Los Angeles Times has released a interview with the 'King Fish' of cinema himself, James Cameron. The Avatar director reveals an August re-release of the box office giant among other things and delves a bit into what we might expect from the sequel:

    "Part of my focus in the second film is in creating a different environment – a different setting within Pandora. And I'm going to be focusing on the ocean on Pandora, which will be equally rich and diverse and crazy and imaginative, but it just won’t be a rain forest. I’m not saying we won’t see what we’ve already seen; we’ll see more of that as well."

    Sounds like Jake will literally get his feet wet this time around. The sequel is probably still a few years from being made, as he will have to dream up all of the various multicolored sea creatures, but don't expect another 12 years in-between. He and others that worked on the film have stated numerous times that the world has been built now and revisiting it will be much easier.

    Be sure to get your tickets in advance for the August re-release!

    Avatar was a peice of shit, I don't care if the sequel ever gets made, James Cameron is kind of an over rated tool as well, his bullshit 3D has fucked shit up for everyone

    I thought Avatar was great - that's how a 3D movie should be, not this last-minute converted crap they're doing with too many movies now. Sure, the story's been done before, but it was told well enough that I didn't have a problem with it. I'll definitely see the re-release.
